ASSOCIATION  FOREIGN  WORK 


C.  K.  Obf.r 

I.  THE  OPEN  DOORS  IN  MISSION  LANDS. 

In  response  to  calls  from  missionaries  and  native  Chris¬ 
tian  leaders  the  North  American  Young  Men’s  Christian 
Associations  have  sent  out  since  1889  trained  secretaries 
to  organize  and  develop  Association  work  in  the  great 
cities  and  student  centres  of  the  orient  and  South  Amer¬ 
ica.  Several  hundred  Associations  have  been  organized; 
native  secretaries  have  been  trained  and  set  apart  for  the 
Association  work;  buildings  have  been  erected;  native 
young  men  have  been  won  to  Christ;  hundreds  have 
been  trained  and  enlisted  in  Christian  service,  and  a  great 
and  expanding  work  is  being  done  in  every  field.  Other 
doors  are  opening,  and  more  secretaries  from  America 
will  be  needed  from  year  to  year. 

The  work  to  which  the  Association  has  thus  been  called 
by  the  churches  does  not  anticipate  or  duplicate  the  work 
of  the  regular  missionary,  but  rather  supplements  and 
reinforces  his  work  throtigh  the  building  up  of  the  Asso¬ 
ciation,  as  a  special  agency  in  distinctive  work  among 
young  men.  In  the  prosecution  of  this  work  many  influ¬ 
ential  fields  are  entered  by  the  Association  which  are  not 
accessible  to  the  regular  missionary  agencies,  particularly 
in  the  government  schools  of  higher  learning. 

Comparatively  few  Association  leaders  from  America 
will  be  required  in  any  of  the  mission  fields,  as  it  is  the 
recognized  policy  of  the  Association  to  enlist  native  lead¬ 
ership  and  utilize  native  resources  in  a  true  Association 
work  of  the  young  men  of  each  country  in  behalf  of  their 


fellow  young  men.  The  aggregate,  however,  of  men  and 
money  needed  will  demand  that  each  Association  on  the 
home  field  shall  recognize  and  discharge  its  part  of  the 
common  missionary  obligation. 


II.  THE  MISSIONARY  SPIRIT  AT  HOME. 

The  missionary  spirit  is  of  greater  value  to  any  Asso¬ 
ciation  than  the  possession  of  an  Association  building, 
for  without  it  the  Association  would  not  only  fail  to  enter 
the  open  doors  in  mission  lands,  but  would  also  fail  to 
appreciate  and  improve  opportunities  for  Christian  work 
at  home. 

But  with  the  missionary  spirit  at  full  tide,  there  would 
come  to  the  Association  foreign  work  a  double  reinforce¬ 
ment,  not  only  the  sending  out  of  as  many  men  as  may 
be  needed  to  join  the  secretaries  on  the  mission  field,  but 
also  the  raising  up  of  thousands  of  men  in  the  home  Asso¬ 
ciation  membership,  who  wrould  join  them  at  the  place  of 
prayer  and  in  a  life  of  sacrifice.  Such  a  band  of  men 
would  be  worth  many  times  more  to  the  home  work  of 
our  Associations  than  the  money  and  effort  given  to  the 
work  abroad. 


III.  ASSOCIATION  FOREIGN  WORK. 

To  provide  a  simple  program  of  foreign  work  that  can 
be  carried  out  by  any  Association,  and  at  the  same  time 
furnish  a  plan  that  is  capable  of  accomplishing  greater 
results,  it  is  necessary  to  consider  the  scheme  of  Associa¬ 
tion  foreign  work  in  two  sections:  (1)  The  committee 
plan ;  (2)  the  volunteer  league. 


1.  The  Committee  Plan. 


This  is  elementary  and  can  be  adopted  by  any  Associ¬ 
ation.  It  is  also  fundamental,  and  should  form  the  basis 
of  the  foreign  work  even  in  Associations  where  the 
Volunteer  league  can  also  be  undertaken.  The  plan 
includes:  (1)  A  foreign  work  committee;  (2)  a  foreign 
work  meeting;  (3)  missionary  literature;  (4)  a  foreign 
work  fund. 

(1)  The  Foreign  Work  Committee,  a.  Composition. 
“The  things  that  thou  hast  heard  of  me  among  many 
witnesses  the  same  commit  thou  to  faithful  men,  who 
shall  be  able  to  teach  others  also.”  (2  Tim.  ii.  2.)  These 
“faithful”  and  “able”  men  should  also  be  men  of  prayer 
and  persistence,  and  should  be  filled  with  the  missionary 
spirit.  They  should  be  selected  also  with  reference  to 
their  particular  fitness  for  doing,  or  getting  others  to 
do,  the  things  that  need  to  be  done  to  make  the 
Association  foreign  work  entirely  successful.  This  sug¬ 
gests: — 

b.  Organization.  The  committee  should  be  organized 
and  its  work  subdivided  so  as  to  place  upon  individual 
members  definite  responsibility,  such  as  (a)  chairman, 
who,  with  the  cooperation  of  his  committee,  should  also 
be  responsible  for  the  Association  foreign  work  meetings ; 
(/;)  secretary,  who  should  also  serve  as  librarian,  to  secure 
wide  circulation  of  the  “Foreign  Mail”  to  individual 
subscribers,  promote  the  reading  of  missionary  pam¬ 
phlets  and  reports,  and  build  up  and  popularize  a  model 
Association  missionary  library ;  ( c )  treasurer,  who  should 
also  serve  as  promoter  of  systematic  giving  for  Associa¬ 
tion  work  in  mission  lands. 

c.  Meetings.  The  committee  should  hold  regular 
monthly  meetings,  and  special  meetings  when  necessary. 

d.  Reports.  Written  reports,  constituting  a  faithful 


4 


record  of  the  committee’s  work,  should  be  given  each 
month  to  the  board  of  directors. 

(2)  The  Association  Foreign  Work  Meeting.  ■  a. 
Importance.  The  appointing  of  a  foreign  work  com¬ 
mittee  places  the  responsibility  for  the  Association’s  for¬ 
eign  work  upon  a  few,  but  the  establishing  of  a  foreign 
work  meeting  enables  these  responsible  men  to  bring  the 
missionary  message  to  the  entire  Association  member¬ 
ship. 

b.  Time  and  Place.  The  best  time  and  the  most 
prominent  place  on  the  Association  platform,  which  in 
most  Associations  is  set  apart  for  the  gospel  meetings  on 
Sunday  afternoon,  should  be  given  to  this  meeting.  The 
regular  object  of  the  gospel  meeting  will  not  be  lost  by 
making  place  occasionally  for  a  missionary  program,  for 
there  is  no  greater  or  more  impressive  evidence  of  Chris¬ 
tianity  than  the  progress  of  the  gospel  in  mission  lands, 
and  conversions  may  reasonably  be  expected  as  a  result 
of  a  well  conducted  foreign  work  meeting.  This  state¬ 
ment  is  not  theory,  but  is  based  on  actual  and  repeated 
experience. 

c.  Frequency.  The  foreign  work  meeting  should  be 
held  at  least  once  each  quarter,  and  not  oftener  than 
once  a  month,  preferably  bi-monthly.  The  meeting 
should  be  held  regularly,  the  dates  being  set  apart  and 
kept  sacredly  for  this  purpose  in  the  Association  calendar. 

d.  Program.  The  program  of  the  Association  foreign 
work  meeting  should  be  made  very  strong  and  attractive. 
The  meeting  should  not  only  give  information,  but  the 
information  should  be  so  given  as  to  produce  a  profound 
spiritual  impression.  To  accomplish  this  result  strong 
speakers  should  be  secured,  and  engaged  sufficiently  in 
advance  to  enable  them  to  make  the  best  preparation. 
Some  phase  of  the  Association’s  work  and  opportunities 
in  mission  lands  should  constitute  the  principal  theme  of 


0 


every  meeting,  and  frequent  emphasis  should  be  given 
to  the  practical  features  of  the  Association  foreign 
work  and  the  Volunteer  league.  In  this  way  only  can 
the  Association  members  be  led  to  recognize  and  accept 
their  missionary  responsibility,  and  be  intelligently 
enlisted  as  helpers  in  the  Association  work  in  mission 
lands.  Suggested  topics  for  the  foreign  work  meeting- 
will  be  found  in  the  religious  work  Prospectus. 

(3)  Association  Missionary  Literature.  Concise  and 
interesting  statements  of  the  fields,  facts,  methods,  work¬ 
ers,  results,  and  opportunities  of  the  Association  work  in 
mission  lands,  and  of  the  principles  and  methods  of  the 
Association  foreign  work,  have  been  prepared,  and  should 
be  read  by  every  Association  member. 

a.  The  Foreign  Mail.  As  its  name  suggests,  this  is 
the  official  periodical  of  the  Association  foreign  work, 
containing  news  items  from  the  field  and  the  missionary 
movement  at  home,  and  the  best  things  ip  the  recent 
correspondence  of  the  foreign  secretaries.  It  also  gives 
the  prayer  topics  of  the  “Sunday  morning  watch.”  It 
is  therefore  indispensable  to  the  interested  member,  and 
the  price  has  been  placed  so  low  that  every  one  who  will 
may  become  a  subscriber. 

b.  The  Forward  Movement  Pamphlets.  These  pam¬ 
phlets  are  campaign  documents  for  busy  men,  explain¬ 
ing  and  advocating  the  principles,  plans,  and  reasons  for 
this  movement  for  world-wide  evangelization,  organiza¬ 
tion,  and  enlistment  of  young  men.  They  should  be 
used  freely,  and  yet  judiciously,  and  will  help  to  educate, 
stimulate,  and  direct  the  Association  members  in  build¬ 
ing  up  an  effective  Association  foreign  work. 

c.  The  Association  Missionary  Library.  Every  Asso¬ 
ciation  should  have  a  library  of  from  two  to  twenty  of 
the  best  missionary  books  on  each  of  the  Association 
mission  fields,  together  with  from  five  to  fifteen  of  the 


6 


choicest  missionary  biographies  and  missionary  books  of 
a  more  general  character.  This  library  should  be  kept 
in  circulation  among  the  members,  and  should  be 
increased  from  time  to  time,  as  desirable  new  books  are 
published.  A  list  of  such  books  may  be  found  in  the 
religious  work  Prospectus. 

(4)  The  Association  Foreign  Work  Fund.  a.  Impor¬ 
tance.  Missionary  information  should  not  be  allowed  to 
evaporate,  but  should  be  encouraged  to  crystallize  in 
substantial  missionary  offerings.  The  foreign  work  com¬ 
mittee  should  be  ambitious  to  accumulate  as  large  a  for¬ 
eign  work  fund  as  possible,  by  getting  the  largest  possi¬ 
ble  number  of  members  to  regularly  contribute  to  it. 
The  possession  of  a  fund  enables  the  Association  not  only 
to  be  well  disposed  toward  the  foreign  work  enterprise, 
and  say  to  it,  “depart  in  peace,  be  ye  warmed  and 
filled,”  but  also  to  give  to  it  “those  things  which  are 
needful,”  and  thus  become  a  partner  in  the  business. 

b.  Best  Method  of  Accumulation.  No  better  method 

has  been  suggested  than  the  apostolic  “rule  of  three” 
for  Christian  giving.  (1  Cor.  xvi.  2.)  (a)  Every  one  of 

you  give  something ,  “lay  by  him  in  store” ;  ( b )  every  one 
give  regularly,  “upon  the  first  day  of  the  week”;  ( c ) 
Every  one  give  proportionately ,  “as  God  hath  prospered 
him.  ” 

c.  Collection.  The  amounts,  which  the  regular  and 
proportionate  givers  “lay  by,”  may  be  collected  weekly, 
monthly,  or  quarterly,  at  the  convenience  of  the  giver. 
Envelopes,  perforated  cards,  or  small  silk  money  bags 
may  facilitate  collection,  but  a  faithful,  systematic, 
painstaking  and  persistent  treasurer,  using,  but  not 
depending  upon  labor-saving  appliances,  is  absolutely 
indispensable  to  complete  success.

2.  The  Volunteer  League. 


(1)  Significance.  To  fill  an  Association  with  the  mis¬ 
sionary  spirit  it  is  necessary  to  plan  and  patiently  carry 
out  a  campaign  of  education  among  the  members,  lead 
them  to  identify  themselves  with  the  missionary  move¬ 
ment,  and  enlist  them  in  some  form  of  helpful  mission¬ 
ary  service.  The  Volunteer  league  includes:  A  mis¬ 
sionary  purpose ;  missionary  reading ;  missionary  pray¬ 
ing;  missionary  giving. 

The  average  Association  member  attending  a  mission¬ 
ary  meeting  perhaps  once  in  three  months,  dropping  a 
coin  into  the  collection,  and  occasionally  reading  the 
shortest  news  notes  in  the  “Foreign  Mail,”  advances  at 
too  slow  a  pace  to  accomplish  much  for  the  world’s 
evangelization. 

The  Volunteer  league  unites  in  a  missionary  brother¬ 
hood  those  members  who  are  willing  to  give  sufficient 
time  to  study,  prayer,  and  the  practice  of  Christian 
stewardship  to  really  make  missions  a  part  of  the  busi¬ 
ness  of  their  lives. 

(2)  Purpose.  The  Volunteer  league  enables  a  man  to 
identify  himself  with  the  great  missionary  movement, 
and  to  declare  his  missionary  purpose.  The  student 
volunteer  says,  “It  is  my  purpose,  if  God  permit,  to 
become  a  foreign  missionary.”  The  Volunteer  league 
member  says,  ‘  ‘  It  is  my  purpose ,  by  the  grace  of  God ,  to 
live ,  to  study ,  to  pray ,  and  to  give  for  the  world's  evangel¬ 
ization." 

In  this  purpose  he  has  advantage  of  the  student  volun¬ 
teer,  for  he  knows  that  God  will  not  prevent. 

(3)  Requirements.  The  Volunteer  league  member 
undertakes  to  do  three  things :  To  give  time  regularly 
to  missionary  reading ;  to  keep  the  ‘  ‘  Sunday  morning 
watch”  in  prayer  for  missions;  to  give  something, 


8 


and  systematically,  for  Association  work  in  mission 
lands. 

a.  Missionary  Reading.  “Truth  is  stranger  than  fic¬ 

tion,”  and  most  men  are  strangers  to  the  truth  concern¬ 
ing  missions.  The  facts,  however,  are  accessible,  and  a 
determined  man  may  master  them  without  interfering 
with  his  business.  The  Volunteer  league  suggests  two 
methods  of  acquiring  missionary  information :  (a)  Home 

reading.  (See  section  beginning  page  73  on  Associa- 
ciation  missionary  literature.)  (/;)  Mission  study  club. 
Courses  of  study  have  been  outlined  on  the  dif¬ 
ferent  Association  mission  fields,  and  on  Bible  facts  and 
principles  fundamental  to  missions.  (For  such  courses 
see  the  Prospectus  of  the  religious  work  of  the  Young 
Men’s  Christian  Association.) 

b.  Missionary  Praying.  The  opportunity  of  “help¬ 
ing  together  by  prayer”  the  Association  representatives 
in  mission  lands  is  afforded  by  the  prayer  topics  of  the 
“Sunday  morning  watch.”  These  topics  are  gathered 
by  regular  correspondence  and  printed  in  the  “Foreign 
Mail.”  They  represent  the  latest  information  from  the 
foreign  secretaries,  concerning  their  plans,  undertakings, 
needs,  difficulties,  opportunities,  and  encouragements. 
The  topics  are  arranged  on  a  weekly  cycle,  and  grouped 

■  by  fields  and  special  objects.  The  importance  and  signi¬ 
ficance  of  this  prayer  cycle  will  be  apparent  to  those  who 
believe  in  prayer  as  a  method  of  Christian  work. 

Our  Association  work  in  mission  lands  is  no  longer  the 
work  of  a  few  secretaries,  throwing  away  their  lives  in  a 
visionary  and  impossible  undertaking,  but  these  men 
become  simply^he  scouts  and  skirmish  lines  of  the  real 
army  of  men  Joy- prayer,  an  army  equipped  with  weapons 
of  precision  and  of  irresistible  power.  Who  can  over¬ 
estimate  the  possible  achievements  of  ten  thousand  men 
upon  their  knees  at  one  time,  in  definite  united  and 


0 


believing  prayer  for  the  extension  of  Christ’s  kingdom 
among  young  men,  and  unto  the  uttermost  parts  of  the 
earth? 

c.  Missionary  Giving.  The  chief  difficulty  in  mis¬ 
sionary  giving  is  not  in  lack  of  method,  but  in  lack  of 
motive,  due  to  failure  to  recognize  the  fundamental  prin¬ 
ciple  of  Christian  stewardship.  Nothing  could  be  more 
important  for  the  upbuilding  and  unlimited  extension  of 
Christ’s  kingdom  than  a  revival  of  Christian  stewardship, 
based  on  intelligent  convictions  on  the  relation  of  money 
to  the  kingdom  of  God.  As  a  result,  men  would  begin 
to  dedicate  their  lives  to  the  accumulation  of  money  for 
the  sole  purpose  of  spending  it  for  Christian  work,  as 
other  men,  with  teaching  and  speaking  ability,  now  give 
their  lives  to  the  direct  preaching  of  the  gospel.  The 
cause  of  missions  needs  money,  but  not  merely  money. 
Acting  on  convictions  of  his  Christian  stewardship,  and 
with  the  courage  of  his  convictions,  a  man  “lays  by  him 
in  store  as  God  hath  prospered  him.”  This  “stored 
energy,”  representing  just  so  much  of  a  Christian  man’s 
life  transmuted  into  money  power,  may  be  released  in 
the  work  of  a  representative  in  mission  lands,  and  through 
it  mighty  works  for. God  and  men  may  be  accomplished, 
especially  if  the  gift  is  accompanied  and  followed  by  the 
prayers  of  the  giver.  The  gift  is  saturated  with  prayer, 
and  the  prayer  is  accelerated  by  the  gift. 

A  careful  selection  of  Christian  stewardship  pamphlets 
has  been  made  by  the  International  Committee,  and  may 
be  obtained  from  them  at  moderate  cost.  These  may  be 
effectively  used :  (a)  By  placing  them  in  the  hands  of 

individuals;  ( b )  as  material  for  a  short  course  of  study 
on  Christian  stewardship ;  (<r)  as  subject  matter  of  a  series 
of  addresses;  ( d )  as  topics  for  devotional  meetings. 

(4)  Membership.  As  a  rule,  membership  in  the  Vol¬ 
unteer  league  should  be  confined  to  active  members  of 


10 


the  Associations,  but  Christian  men  qualified  to  become 
active  members,  though  not  members  of  a  local  Associa¬ 
tion,  may  become  members  of  the  league  by  recording 
their  league  membership  at  the  office  of  the  International 
Committee.  The  conditions  of  Volunteer  league  mem¬ 
bership  are:  a.  A  purpose  to  live,  to  study,  to  pray, 
and  to  give  for  the  world’s  evangelization,  b.  A  pro¬ 
vision  for  definite  missionary  reading  and  missionary 
praying,  by  a  personal  subscription  to  the  “Foreign 
Mail,”  containing  the  prayer  topics  of  the  “Sunday 
morning  watch.”  c.  A  pledge  of  a  weekly  offering  of 
a  definite  amount  for  the  Association  work  in  mission 
lands,  payable  at  stated  convenient  periods.  It  should 
be  the  ambition  of  each  league  member  not  only 
faithfully  to  live  up  to  his  own  membership  purposes,  but 
to  secure  one  new  member  every  month,  until  the  material 
for  new  members  is  exhausted.  In  this  way  the  league 
will  not  only  become  self-perpetuating,  but  also  self- 
propagating. 

(5)  Officers.  Only  the  simplest  form  of  organization 
that  will  provide  the  necessary  leadership,  hold  the 
leaguie  to  its  distinctive  purpose,  and  make  it  self-per¬ 
petuating,  is  desired. 

The  members  of  the  foreign  work  committee  will 
naturally  constitute  the  nucleus  and  furnish  the  leader¬ 
ship  of  the  Volunteer  league,  the  officers  of  the  com¬ 
mittee  serving  also  for  the  league,  in  the  capacity  of 
president,  secretary,  and  treasurer,  respectively,  except 
when  circumstances  make  it  advisable  for  either  of  these 
officers  to  delegate  responsibility  to  another  man. 

(6)  Meetings,  a.  A  regular  (monthly,  bi-monthly, 
or  quarterly)  business  meeting  of  league  members  should 
be  held  to  consider  and  adopt  means  of  promoting  the 
objects  of  the  league,  and  of  increasing  the  league 


11 


membership,  b.  An  occasional  meeting  should  be  held 
for  united  prayer  for  special  objects,  or  for  prayer  topics 
of  the  “Sunday  morning  watch.”  Probably  the  most 
appropriate  time  for  such  a  meeting  would  be  at  a  com¬ 
paratively  early  hour  on  Sunday  morning,  c.  A  meet¬ 
ing  for  devotional  Bible  study  on  such  fundamental  sub¬ 
jects  as  “Intercessory  prayer,”  and  “Christian  steward¬ 
ship,  ”  could  very  profitably  be  maintained,  d.  A  mis¬ 
sion  study  club,  meeting  weekly  for  at  least  six  months 
of  the  year,  would  prove  extremely  valuable.  This 
should  be  open  not  only  to  league  members,  but  also  to 
the  other  members  of  the  Association. 

Work  Through  a  Representative. 

The  Association  foreign  work  includes  not  only  the 
committee  plan  and  the  Volunteer  league,  but  also  the 
representative  idea.  By  this  is  understood  the  assump¬ 
tion  by  an  Association,  or  a  group  of  Associations,  of 
definite  responsibility  for  the  support  of  a  missionary 
secretary.  This  should  be  regarded  as  sacred  as  any 
obligation  of  the  Association,  and  its  payment  should  be 
guaranteed  in  the  Association’s  annual  budget,  although 
the  expectation  should  be  to  distribute  the  amount  among 
the  Association  membership,  as  suggested,  through  the 
weekly  offerings,  and  the  creation  of  a  foreign  work  fund. 

The  taking  and  fulfilling  of  missionary  responsibility 
in  the  entire  or  partial  support  of  a  missionary  repre¬ 
sentative,  through  the  work  of  a  foreign  work  commit¬ 
tee,  and  the  intelligent  prayer  and  stewardship  of  a  Vol¬ 
unteer  league,  will  make  a  missionary  Association,  and 
such  an  Association  will  inherit  the  promises  and  the 
power  of  God.
